could get the coronavirus pandemic under control if most Americans wear masks, embrace social distancing and practice good hand hygiene for up to three months, the head of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said Friday.
"It's in our hands, within our grasp," CDC Director Robert Redfield told reporters on a conference call. "But it is going to require all of us to embrace these mitigation steps. And we're going to need to do that four, six, eight, 10, 12 weeks and then we will see this outbreak under control.
doctormom27 republicans are extending this virus It didn't have to be so bad
🖕
Politicized CDC contradicts itself on valved N95 respirators, recommending them to health care workers as safe while alleging to the public that they are dangerous. CDC admits it has no proof.
Deja vu. Seems like they said that in March, too. MaskUp
By 'most Americans' is he thinking 'just Democrats?' For he knows that Republicans will never do it.
You “forgot” to add this to your tweet. coronavirus COVID19 CoronavirusVaccine
Everything depends on if
Funny, we were told at the beginning '14 days of quarantine' would do it. And now here we are around 12 weeks until election day, and now this. Most people ARE wearing masks. Masks will not eliminate a virus. An election might though.
No one has the right to never catch flu or a cold. If you're vulnerable, then you have to look after your own health & adapt. You're in no position to force others to give up their own wellbeing & freedom so that u can avoid normal risks. COERCION IS NOT HEALTHCARE!
And then what? That doesn’t make it go away
That'll happen regardless. Farr's Law. Silly humans.
Most do and we locked down. It’s not working.
And we believe the CDC why ?
salesforce ceo said 3 weeks on MadMoneyOnCNBC
FYI. They will say this 12 weeks from now as well. Start a National mask mandate and 12 weeks in they will say this again. The only way to rid this virus from us is to elect Biden and watch the media coverage (and thus the virus) fade away.
That is true everywhere..humans are nuts.
never happen too many Americans are ignorant, willful, and immature 'but my rights, my freedom, omg this is communism'!
That’s a big “If”. CDC COVID19
Sure...
CDC says a lot of shit now, DON'T they?
Lol horseshit. Dont you think if masks worked we would be in this shit situation? Its a highly contagious virus that was nearly impossible to contain. Masks dont work. Especially cheap bandana scarves. You think that's gonna stop nanoparticles?
People still won't wear them because they are ignorant. They would rather die than wear a mask, makes no sense. I never thought I'd say this but maybe it should be mandatory to wear a mask or risk getting a fine.
But nearly half of Americans are too stupid to understand this sentence.
I guarantee you HCQ+zinc, staying home if you're sick, washing your hands, eating less carb junk food will control all flu. Focus on good health, stop perpetuating fear to control people. Fix/change the test, it's a red herring.
I don’t trust the CDCgov or the US_FDA
Most Americans are wearing masks. So it should be over pretty soon then, right
So who’s fighting this Oh wait ..
So they want to stomp on the BLM right to protests. Animals.
Ummmm... so what have we been doing since March?
BS
Never going to happen with all the Trump morons out there 🤣🖕🏽
It was 2 weeks originally. You saying the CDC is full of shit? NO? I am.
Wheres the studies? Wheres the evidence? Wheres the pandemic?
Protests are still going on...
Expert claims all we have to do is listen to him. I’m sold
thiruverse CDC, tell that to realDonaldTrump who refuses to embrace and continues to spread FakeNews proganda! TrumpFailedAmerica GOP failed America by not standing up to Trump! What ammo does Trump have on the GOP? Americans don't trust Trump! TrumpLiesEverytimeHeSpeaks
Fake fucking news. It’s already contained and collapsing.
Bullshit. People are already wearing masks. The masks are useless. It’s all about control. H1n1 killed way more people
If everyone quits breathing it will go away
Who would know?! All that data was flowed away from the CDC to some Trump-friendly company’s database to lose or severely undercount. TrumpCrimeSyndicate
I've been wearing since the beginning. I'm ready to open up. Bring on herd immunity
More evidence the CDC is trash.
MountainDragn 12 weeks? The members of this society are all about instant gratification.
Well they are
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
WHY is there not a federal mandate yet in all states for masks? Why is this hard!
How dare CDC tell Americans what to do! Its a free country! I'm being sarcastic if case someone didn't noticed that.
Most Americans do wear the dang mask
Big IF
But the trump supporters won't because that would infringe on their 'freedom'. Thank goodness we didn't have these pathetic weaklings back when we were in WW 2 or Korea! BikersForTrump ChrisCox2020
The same CDC that had on its website masks do not work? Yeah right!!!! Covid is still not even as bad as the seasonal flu.DONT BELIEVE CNBC OR CDC!!!.....🙏🏼🇺🇸
Pointless. It’ll flare up again and again. Get rid of masks. Let everyone get it and be done with it. We just prolonging the agony.
No they can't. It's a virus, masks aren't going to completely knock out a virus. It only takes one person to start the spread all over again. 12 weeks would not work. We will have to learn to live with the new virus.
Really good I’ve been doing this since March!! Let’s open it up...😊
Duh. We’ve known this. We have no leadership.
I dont beleive the CDC, MSNBC, or this study. Why should I?
Bs
Wasn't long ago they were saying 'if Americans wear masks for just 4 weeks.' Then again we also have those arguing this shit must continue even after a vaccine, so we can drop the pretense this is about a virus.
Big if
Total and complete bullshit.
EarnRespectDon Someone wants out, eh? I wonder how djt feels about this...
Well, I think it's clear that our population is too selfish for that... what else you got?
Wear your fucking masks!
LIES ON TOP OF LIES! Is it me or these MF just crazy, cause thats not what I read on Bloomberg. Get your stories straight
I thought lockdown was suppose to do that
Key word “if” 🤦🏾♂️
Well that’s not going to happen, at least not in FL. I see folks everyday without masks
They’ve been saying this for months. We have too many idiots in this country that have zero self control. Just look at the selfish college kids partying in large groups the second they return to campus. This is not all on Trump, the public is to fault.
Americans NOT Europeans no way to mandate them wear masks
Funny vaccine maker are saying even with a vaccine nothing changes... the fear continues. The wolves must maintain control over sheep!
masks dont do anything according to this hypocrite
They said that 46 weeks ago
Hypocrisy ⬇️ ⬇️ ⬇️
Right after the election...
False
Dimwit society is 100% to blame. No W’s for them. Wear a mask in public, Wash your hands and Watch your distance. They are shutting us down and making the trip take much longer.
Wow. Only three more months. Shit fire and save matches!
Surgeon general should be giving daily commercials and communications on this.
But but but freedom
That ain’t happening. What’s the next idea?
Ya right! It's always something new every week from y'all. Frauds!
BS
Lol, Good Luck!
'IF'. Good luck. 🤤
Looks like the CDC is a bunch of retards walking into walls. What about immigration both documented and undocumented? So you are going to stop all international travel?
Good luck with schools across country starting back up with no national standards for social distancing.
The masks to wear!
Not according to Sweden's disease expert....
We’ve known that for six months!!! And yet........
big if.
No lockdown, too?
Oh kma...
Derp
Wtf does he think we’ve been doing !!! This guys a criminal and owes dr Judy a apology plandemic
But we won’t because we’re idiots
That’s been going on for 5 mos now
& MOST ARE? STILL will have carriers w/o symptoms! FLU season going to MAKE shitloads panic AGAIN! Even with PPE, Social distancing, ALL the good AMERICANS do...WE WILL have COVID this FALL! WE WILL have CDC & Doctor call FLU the COVID; TESTING does NOT due SHIT other than FAIL!
GregMannarino
...yeah, if we wear masks and social distance for the rest of our lives....
The same CDC that needed 15 days to stop the pandemic 🙃 we are running on a 150 days 🤔
Good luck, Trump and his cult following will never do this.
Most Americans? you mean to exempt Q people? Republicans? or so-called undocumented ones?
Sweden's Lead Epidemiologist: Wearing Face Masks Is 'Very Dangerous'
84 days. That's all we need to get this under control. 84 days of acting like decent human beings. We are doomed cause that's not happening
So they're saying it's impossible
Bs. Open everything. Over 99.9 percent survival rate.
And the election is in 11 weeks, how ironic
This do make sense to me. It will atlease slow it down.
Yep realDonaldTrump GovKemp
I also read if you turn off we can control the virus even better in 12 weeks
Most have been doing that.
Does this include Trump and his stupid COVIDIDIOTS MAGA too?
Not as long as Donald Trump doesn't stress to his supporters the importance to wear masks.....
Joke. The Democrats are playing with this virus numbers. They would dramatically illuminate numbers in 12 weeks once Biden is elected. If Biden losses, they will keep play with fake numbers.
Alternatively- The govt can control us forever by constantly saying we’re bad little boys and girls and not following the rules.... It’s all a scam.
I've also read that it could decrease the severity of flu season. A two-fer.
If means that’s impossible!
Wait a minute. I’m already been masking for 12 weeks
I wish it would happen but it won't. Too many people ignoring the recommendations. The large group gatherings are really hurting all of us.
True but they prefer to slow down or eliminate testing in certain areas to make it seem like cases are reducing. Once it’s reported who’s going to wear a mask when they think it’s going away even though it’s not?
12 weeks? That will bring us right up until the election. Remember when they told us we only had to quarantine for 15 days back in the beginning of the coronavirus and that masks won’t help?
so CDC wants masks up until the election (12 weeks) and then COVID would disappear?
Sure
Bill Gates said this in February it's why South Korea has less than 400 deaths, and Trump Virus is pushing 174,000 in US More testing and tracing does not cause more cases & deaths, bad behaviors, early re-openings & lack of social distancing & mandatory masks contributes
Ever since this horrible virus became political, it's safe to say, that will not happen.
US could control coronavirus, If the people stepped up and controlled the government. hoax agenda plandemic electionyear
Election day makes sense
So......Biden takes office in January.....that means....carry the 2........we will have Covid under control in March 2021.
Horse poop. Most Americans are wearing masks.
It's over
